Top SA cyclist Nic Dlamini was in the operating theatre on Saturday morning after his arm was broken by Table Mountain National Park officials.

On Instagram, alongside a photograph of her with Dlamini and her three-year-old son Ryan, she said: “Today has been one of the saddest days of my life. To see someone I love like my own child senselessly attacked on video is something I’ll never get over — someone who has overcome such hardship & made an incredible life for himself through sheer gut determination & talent ... 💔 Get better soon my sweetheart.

In a statement, Le Cok said: “I got to the scene just at the point where the SANParks official had knocked Nicholas off of his bike to check his permit. “It is quite a shocking thing to encounter when someone tries to grab you off of your bike, something that a criminal does rather than a park ranger.

Is it just me of coastal ladies are most likely to date us black guys?

Please can we all make sure that these rangers PAY for what they did. justicefornic

Actress Vanessa Haywood, also a keen cyclist and a friend of Dlamini, posted a photograph on Twitter of X-rays showing Dlamini’s left humerus — the long bone in the upper arm.

But he is a cyclist...they did not break his leg!!!

Is that his wife?

Sue them - and for plenty - for assault, medical costs both now and in the future, and potential future earnings as a cyclist.

Those rangers must be fired and charged.

This is disgusting...shame on these Rangers. The moment u put certain ppl on a uniform they feel their above the law. Here is a young man who lost out on an amazing opportunity which would have changed his life. Saddest part is these 'rangers' will probably just get a warning.

Cape Town is bad news for certain race😕

It is like they knew he had a white family

The Rangers must be arrested. If they run away, they must be allowed to come back anytime they wish and be released like the RACIST Vicki Momberg Woman who was recently released

Le Picture? Who is Nic Dlamini here😂

He was not known by many until someone decided to break his arm. Wish him speedy recovery and assailants must be jailed.

Hope they're all fired , the stupid rangers.

I still want to get full facts before I can comment but the breaking of his arm amount to brutality

Friend

Toy cops.

This picture causes so much distraction.

Is this picture another stronger together fallacy

Must be his family

And the picture👀👀, but lost how arm surgery and picture goes together.

Barbara Creecy instructs SANParks to suspend officials who were involved in scuffle with Nic DlaminiThe minister visited the cyclist in hospital on Friday to hear the turn of events directly from him. but how why without even hearing their side of the story nah this is not leadership This is the typical political reaction... How do you suspend people who did their work before a proper internal investigation? This is against labour practice of SA. So what you are doing finding them guilty before a court or a hearing ruling.

Creecy orders suspension of officials in Nic Dlamini scuffle - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.Minister of Environment, Forestry and Fisheries Barbara Creecy has ordered the suspension of all officials involved in an incident in which top cyclist Nic Dlamini had his arm broken allegedly by park rangers in Cape Town. I'm thrilled these thugs are being held accountable, but how many times has this happened with a non famous person, we saw a ranger bullying tourists at Boulders and had to step in and call his supervisor. It's the thing of a little power... I’m sorry but that is not how you treat someone for not having a stupid permit. A fine = ok, but don’t arrest or assault someone! That is grievous bodily harm. Insane. Imagine if he was a tourist! And what about the impact it will have on SAns and their opinion of “law enforcers” Breaking someone's arm for a permit, now he can't represent us in the competition, I can imagine the sound of a snapping bone, something should be done.
